Highlights
The Calipso liveaboard schedules year-round diving in the Galapagos National Park. Completely renovated in 2019, everything was designed to offer comfort and a fresh, modern environment. There are 6 cabins on the upper deck and 2 cabins on the main deck, each with panoramic windows, en-suite bathrooms, a hairdryer, individually controlled AC, a TV with hundreds of films to choose from, a safety deposit box, USB charging ports, and laminate flooring. Beds are doubles that can be converted into two singles. There is also a single cabin located on the lower deck with no single supplement, subject to availability. At 33m in length, there is more than enough space for 16 guests and 11 crew members on board. Social areas include an indoor salon and dining area, where international and Ecuadorian cuisine is served, featuring fresh local produce and seafood. The top deck has lounge chairs, a BBQ, a bar, and a hot tub.
Calipso Galapagos dive itineraries are 7 nights long and explore the world-famous Wolf & Darwin for the chance to get up close with whale sharks, hammerheads, and dolphins. Calipso also visits Marchena, previously only dived by a few scientists and filmmakers; it is known for having huge pods of dolphins, schools of Hammerheads, and Galapagos sharks. The large dive deck at the back of the boat has rinse tanks, hot water showers, dedicated camera storage and cleaning areas, and personal towels.

Awesome trip in the best liveaboard I've been
One day at Darwin, while being surrounded of hammerheads and galapagos sharks as usual, a group of silky sharks decided to surround us feeling curious, we were so excited to have such an experience, when a massive Whale Shark appeared from the deep blowing our minds. Believe what they tell you about the Galapagos, and if you go with this really big and comfortable boat full of details with a crew that enjoys their job, you will be in the perfect hands. (I've been in 3 other liveaboards around the world, so I can compare, this one was the best).

Once-in-a-lifetime dive trip
Wolf and Darwin had it all: whale sharks, hammerhead sharks without end, eagle rays of all sizes. Diving with marine iguanas, baby rays and penguins was just amazing. The first submersible to conduct an evacuation exercise. Fantastic food, loving service and great guides, who also provided a lot of general information about the Galapagos Islands.

Above and beyond
It is absolutely a pleasure to sail with the Calipso. The cohesiveness of the crew and the service they provided is just at another level. Our guides were super knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. Chef should get a Michelin Star. The amenities are modern and perfect, definitely top class. If I’ll come back to the Galápagos, I’ll do it again with the Calipso.
